We're Sorry If You Have To Fly Through Chicago Midway For Thanksgiving

Good luck getting home on time for turkey this Thanksgiving if
you're flying out of Chicago Midway airport. The airport was
ranked by Travel + Leisure this month as the worst in
the nation for delays.

Gleaning stats from the Bureau of Labor Statistics over a
12-month period, the magazine ranked the best and the worst
airports for delays.

Here's what they found:

Better bring a book (or two). Nearly 30
percent of all flights out of Chicago Midway were delayed, making
it the riskiest bet for travelers on a time crunch.

The airport was closely followed by Baltimore/Washington
International Airport, which saw 23.2 percent of its flights
delayed, and San Francisco International Airport, which ticked
off passengers with delays on 22.4 percent of its flights.

The best of the worst were Hartsfield Jackson-Atlanta airport
(20.1 percent delayed) and Denver International (20.1
percent).

Your best bet. Sea-Tac Airport (Seattle/Tacoma)
nabbed the top spot with the least delays (13.1 percent). The top
three were rounded out by Portland International (13.5 percent)
and Reagan National (13.7 percent).
